ECSTATIC DEEP WAVES
A 3 Hour Transformational Deep-Dive Dance Journey
Welcome to our 2nd 🌞Solstice Edition🌞Deep Waves - with an elegant new Space, a beautiful rich Sound System, and an expanded Transformational Journey
Deep Waves Ecstatic Dance is created by dancers who feel that something more is possible in a conscious dance journey. Over the years, we’ve witnessed an evolution in the field... and with it, a new desire: to go further. To explore not only the depths within, but also how we relate, connect, and move with others. Because it’s here, in honest movement, emotion and raw connection, that we meet all parts of ourselves, light and shadow, strength and vulnerability... and are invited to dance and be with it all.
After an incredible first dance, we are SO excited to invite you to our special Solstice Edition - taking place in a next level venue! Temple of Sophia has beautiful high ceilings, an epic sound system and a spacious, wooden dance floor to support the depth and expansiveness of your journey.
The solstice is a powerful threshold, whether it’s light returning or darkness descending, we willdance right on this turning point, inviting in the shift in natures cycles and riding the waves of life together.
This is not just an extended ecstatic dance. It’s a full-spectrum, intentionally held journey for inner work, healing, and self-discovery. Guided by an expertly woven 3-wave musical arc, held by skilled spaceholders, and set in a safe, immersive atmosphere, this is a dance for those ready to surrender, to transform, and to integrate.
This also isn’t about pushing hard for three hours straight. It’s about learning how to move with your energy. To be present, to witness, to trust, and to flow with whatever shows up.
If you feel the pull to explore what lies beyond your usual edges, or if you’re simply curious to discover how deep movement can really go... this space is for you.
